A La Luz de Los Cocuyos

In the Light of the Fireflies

A La Luz de Los Cocuyos

Oh, love of my loves, I come to sing my song to you;Ay, amor de mis amores te vengo a cantar mi copla;
I am full of illusions and I want to kiss your lips.ando lleno de ilusiones y quiero besar tu boca.
I want to tell you little things that I carry inside my soul;Quiero decirte cositas que traigo dentro del alma;
but as they are beautiful, I want to say them calmly.pero como son bonitas quiero decirlas con calma.

I don't know if you will come, I don't know if I will go;Yo no sé si vengas tu, yo no sé si vaya yo;
but you will feel my kisses and I will feel yourspero has de sentir mis besos y yo he de sentir los tuyos
and we will remain prisoners in the light of the fireflies.y hemos de quedarnos presos a la luz de los cocuyos.

I want to see you beautiful without sorrows and without prideTe quiero mirar bonita sin penas y sin orgullos
and I want to lay in your arms in the light of the fireflies.y quiero echarme en tus brazos a la luz(falsete) de los cocuyos.

How many nights of your life have you spent with me,Cuantas noches de tu vida habrás pasado conmigo,
counting the little stars with only God as a witness;contando las estrellitas y solo Dios por testigo;
always with our faces to the sky, sheltered by the moon;siempre con la cara al cielo, cobijados por la luna;
counting the little stars, kiss by kiss, one by one.contando las estrellitas beso a beso, una por una.

I don't know if you will come, I don't know if I will go...Yo no sé si vengas tu, yo no sé si vaya yo...

I want to see you beautiful without sorrows and without pride...Te quiero mirar bonita sin penas y sin orgullos...
